Experience is what I can bring to the table for both a home seller or home buyer. I have been in the real estate business for over 35+ years. I have owned my own real estate company in the upstate of South Carolina for over 19 years. I closed that company and moved to the low country to be near my children. I have sold real estate when the market rates were so low and we had so many buyers but we did not have enough homes and trying to get an offer in before someone else was a real challenge. I have sold real estate when the market rates were 18 and 19% and we had to be real creative in how to sell them and create ways to have buyers buy these homes. Now this market however is a complete revolution to any market I have worked in with my real estate career. I now am specializingin working with distressed home sellers to educate them on their choices to avoid foreclosure. I have taken a lot of time and money to get trained so that I can be sure that home sellers will have the correct knowledge to make their own choices as to what they would like to do concerning their home. I am working with the investor short sale model and we have been able to see many home sellers avoid foreclosure and start their lives anew.I believe the more knowledge you have in the real estate business the better you become as a Realtor to the consumers. I love this business and I want to help buyers and sellers be sure the biggest financial decision of their lives is a good experience for them whether buying or selling a home.
My expertise is in many areas. I have worked consistently over the years with "first time home buyers". I really enjoy helping them to find their first home and then I make sure they know the process so that they can feel confident when they purchase another home. I also have worked a lot with investors both in the commercial and residential area. When the bank situation happened several years ago, I represented several investors buying commercial property in the Upstate of South Carolina. I have owner and operated my own real estate business in the Upstate of South Carolina for over 13 years. I published one of the first "forsalebyowner" magazines in South Carolina. I never missed publishing that magazine for over 11 years straight. When I closed my business in the Upstate I moved to the Low Country to be near my children. I have had my own flat fee real estate company in the Low Country for over three years. I now specialize along with my business partner in working with distressed home sellers and working to educate them on how to avoid foreclosure. I have Graduated from the Real Estate Institute and I am a Certified Real Estate Specialist, Accredited Buyer's Agent, Certified Buyer's Agent and a Consumer Certified Real Estate Counselor and Broker in Charge of my present real estate company. I have taken many courses and have obtained a Short Sale Specialist designation from two different places. I believe to be the kind of Realtor we need to be that we always need to be on top of our game by educating ourselves as much as possible. We need to be on top of all the new ideas and procedures that come our way and be open to new ways of doing things. We always need to be thinking "outside of the box" as to how we can better serve our clients and customers.
I have been in the real estate business for over 35 years. I have had my own real estate company for over 20 years. I specialize in shortsales and working with the investor model and flat fee mls.
